Whelp, I've had some trips fall through over the summer. I was supposed to go on a week long offroad trip, and that was going to be a MAJOR shakedown run of the trailer, but my wife severely broke her foot the weekend before, and has been down for 5 weeks now. Hopefully, we get to find out when...
Not today, but lots of things going on over here.
Took the roof top tent off my Xterra, and put it on my wife's.
I also built the driver's side rack on the trailer, and got a jerry can mounted on it. I'm planning to start building the diesel heater box in october, and having it finished in...
Welcome! I finished the main part of my build just before memorial day.
That's got to be the largest diy camper trailer I've seen so far! Looks like a really fun project.
The only thing I can think of is extruded aluminum profiles. Then you can get edge lok weather stripping that clamps onto that. I'm not sure.
That's one of the advantages of the PMF process and prefab doors, I guess. All my edges are sealed.
One thing that might work is to coat the edges...
Lots on Fire over here atm. Your best bet is call some of the Ranger stations, let them know what you're doing, and see what they say. We had to re-route around part of the LoLo last year due to an active fire in the area.
I use these all the time. They're fantastic. Really great for connecting wires of different gauge to each other as well. I keep some of these, as well as a small, cylindrical butane torch in my tool roll for repairing wires in the field. I have to break it out twice so far, and it's much better...
I think you're gonna have a hard time with that one. You might be better of looking for jerry can storage solutions, and mounting jerries there, and using a single propane mount.
Looks great!
I also don't have levels on mine either. I'm planning on using the simarine inclinometer that pairs with my monitoring system. I can then pull it up on the display, and my phone.
The galley and organization will come in due time. My goal was having a prep and cook surface that...
Also, can you possibly heat the filon with a heat gun, and push it back down? That's something that people do with PMF. Apparently the glue gets soft enough to re-adhere. I don't know if it'll work with yours, but it's worth a shot.
I think it looks pretty good. The rough edges and gaps aren't anything that can't be hidden with some trim pieces. As far as the shelves go, it's simple, and I like it. Might I suggest taking a look at the front runner flat boxes. I can provide you with dimensions but I believe they're about 17"...
Well, in regards to making it up as you go, I'd say it came out pretty sweet!! I'd love to see some pics of the interior of the cabin as well. Have you added storage in there yet? I still need to make the cabinet doors for mine. I've just not gotten to it yet, as I have other things I need to...
No worries! I actually have a Lincoln multi-process. It does flux core, might and Tig, along with 110 and 220v. He also gave me both gas bottles (though they're empty). I just don't have anywhere to plug it in. My house only has a single exterior outlet, and it's on the front of the house. I...
@WYWander I really wished you lived closer to me. You could teach me how to use the welder that I have. It was given to me, but I have no idea how to use it.
Dude, it looks fantastic! I feel you with the Pre-made doors though. I'm really glad I chose to go that route with mine. It really did make life SO much easier.
Also, your fenders look amazing. Wanna build me some? And no, I'm not joking. At some point, we'll need to meet up in Eastern Idaho...
